E-Mail Information. In addition
to providing the foregoing information to our partners, if you

retain the content of your email messages together with your
email address and our responses. We provide the same
protections for these electronic communications that we employ
in the maintenance of information received by mail and
telephone.
2. Web Site Use Information
Similar to other commercial Web sites, our Web site utilizes a
standard technology called "cookies" (see explanation below,
"What Are Cookies?") and Web server logs to collect
information about how our Web site is used. Information
gathered through cookies and Web server logs may include the
date and time of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at our
Web site, and the Web sites visited just before and just after
our Web site. This information is collected on an aggregate
basis. None of this information is associated with you as an
individual.
How Do We Use the Information That You Provide to Us?
Broadly speaking, we use personal information for purposes of
administering our business activities, providing customer
service and making available other products and services to
our customers and prospective customers. Occasionally, we may
also use the information we collect to notify you about
important changes to our Web site, new services and special
offers we think you will find valuable. The lists used to send
you product and service offers are developed and managed under
our traditional corporate standards designed to safeguard the
security and privacy of our customers' personal information.
As a customer, you will be given the opportunity, at least
once annually, to notify us of your desire not to receive
these offers.
What Are Cookies? Cookies are a feature of Web browser
software that allows Web servers to recognize the computer
used to access a Web site. Cookies are small pieces of data
that are stored by a user's Web browser on the user's hard
drive. Cookies can remember what information a user accesses
on one Web page to simplify subsequent interactions with that
Web site by the same user or to use the information to
streamline the user's transactions on related Web pages. This
makes it easier for a user to move from Web page to Web page
and to complete commercial transactions over the Internet.
How Do We Use Information We Collect from Cookies? We
use Web site browser software tools such as cookies and Web
server logs to gather information about our Web site users'
browsing activities, in order to constantly improve our Web
site and better serve our customers. This information assists
us to design and arrange our Web pages in the most
user-friendly manner and to continually improve our Web site
to better meet the needs of our customers and prospective
customers.
Cookies help us collect important business and technical
statistics. The information in the cookies lets us trace the
paths followed by users to our Web site as they move from one
page to another. Web server logs allow us to count how many
people visit our Web site and evaluate our Web site's visitor
capacity. We do not use these technologies to capture your
individual email address or any personally identifying
information about you although they do permit us to send
focused online banner advertisements or other such responses
to you.
Sharing Information with Affiliates. From time to time
you may notice offers from outside companies advertised on our
Web site. We take measures to select product or service
providers that are responsible and afford privacy protections
to their customers. However, we cannot make any
representations about the practices and policies of these
companies.
Notice of New Services and Changes. Occasionally, we
may also use the information we collect to notify you about
important changes to our Web site, new services and special
offers we think you will find valuable. As our client, you
will be given the opportunity to notify us of your desire not
to receive these offers by clicking on a response box when you
receive such an offer or by sending us an email request at
sales@ionhosting.com.
How Do We Secure Information Transmissions? When you
send confidential personal credit card information to us on
our Web site, a secure server software which we have licensed
encrypts all information you input before it is sent to us.
The information is scrambled en route and decoded once it
reaches our Web site.
Other email that you may send to us may not be secure unless
we advise you that security measures will be in place prior to
your transmitting the information. For that reason, we ask
that you do not send confidential information such as Social
Security or account numbers to us through an unsecured email.
How Do We Protect Your Information? Information
Security. We utilize encryption/security software to safeguard
the confidentiality of personal information we collect from
unauthorized access or disclosure and accidental loss,
alteration or destruction.
Evaluation of Information Protection Practices.
Periodically, our operations and business practices are
reviewed for compliance with corporate policies and procedures
governing the security, confidentiality and quality of our
information.
Employee Access, Training and Expectations. Our
corporate values, ethical standards, policies and practices
are committed to the protection of customer information. In
general, our business practices limit employee access to
confidential information, and limit the use and disclosure of
such information to authorized persons, processes and
transactions.
How Can You Access and Correct Your Information? You
may request access to all your personally identifiable
information that we collect online and maintain in our
database by emailing info@ionhosting.com.
Do We Disclose Information to Outside Parties? We may
provide aggregate information about our customers, sales, Web
site traffic patterns and related Web site information to our
affiliates or reputable third parties, but this information
will not include personally identifying data, except as
otherwise provided in this Privacy Policy.
What About Legally Compelled Disclosure of Information?
We may disclose information when legally compelled to do so,
in other words, when we, in good faith, believe that the law
requires it or for the protection of our legal rights.
What About Other Web Sites Linked to Our Web Site? We
are not responsible for the practices employed by Web sites
linked to or from our Web site nor the information or content
contained therein. Often links to other Web sites are provided
solely as pointers to information on topics that may be useful
to the users of our Web site.
Please remember that when you use a link to go from our Web
site to another Web site, our Privacy Policy is no longer in
effect. Your browsing and interaction on any other Web site,
including Web sites which have a link on our Web site, is
subject to that Web site's own rules and policies. Please read
over those rules and policies before proceeding.
Your Consent. By using our Web site you consent to our
collection and use of your personal information as described
in this Privacy Policy. If we change our privacy policies and
procedures, we will post those changes on our Web site to keep
you aware of what information we collect, how we use it and
